I see alot of mistakes in composition on this forum.....

I see alot of images that are good from a technical standpoint but fall just short.

They are not bad images per se -they are just off 10% - just to the point where they are not strong pieces of work.

just so folks don't yell "troll post"- let me go into details so I am adding something of merit.

the person has the correct camera- they know the controls - they keep up to date on the newest of everything.

they are in the perfect spot - they have everything going for themselves.

here is the problem:

they dont fight for the perfect angle -they dont fight for the perfect moment- they dont see the one thing that might be the most interesting- they rush -then they dont have the artistic judgement to know IF they got a strong image. some people cant sing but they have very good judgement as to who is a good singer.

i saw this alot on the D800 forum.

GOOD CAMERA - NOT GOOD IMAGES.

alot of these guys didnt need the D800 - they dont even understand what makes a good photo
